This powerful solution allows network professionals to improve their daily workflow of monitoring, analysis, and troubleshooting with intuitive solutions, all from the same manufacturer.
The OptiView Management Suite combines a number of Fluke Networks' best-in-class solutions. Providing macro views of key devices, links, and applications includes OptiView Management Appliance, a powerful discovery and analysis tool; OptiView Reporter, software for monitoring, long-term trend estimation, and web-based reporting; and OptiView NetFlow Tracker, software for visualizing traffic flows from routers to various sites. For remote views from the end-user perspective, the suite utilizes NetAlly® Application Advisor. For micro, online views, ClearSight™ Analyzer and Network Time Machine™ enable users to examine packets and perform in-depth analysis. For views from any point in the network, wired or wireless, the portable OptiView Portable Network Analyzer can be taken to the point of test. Combining these views into one solution ensures network professionals have the complete picture to pinpoint the root cause of problems faster and optimize network performance.
“A key component of the OptiView management suite is its ability to customize the offering based on the network engineer’s daily workflow: monitoring, analyzing, and troubleshooting,” said Arif Kareem, president of Fluke Networks. “Every day, engineers need to monitor the health of their network and key devices, as well as perform proactive management and daily reporting tasks. If problems are identified, the network engineer goes into analysis mode: isolating and resolving issues, first from their desktop and then, if the problem persists, from the most appropriate point in the network. The OptiView management suite is the only solution available that provides all the tools to support this workflow in a single solution.”
